Encrypted fileshares in the local network?

MigratingtoLemmy@lemmy.world to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 35 points –

Hello everyone, I've been thinking about this for a bit and am looking for opinions/alternatives.

Essentially, I'd like to encrypt my shares (NFS/Samba) on my local network. I'm awake that Kerberos is a good option with NFS, but I was hoping for something simpler. The other idea I have right now is to use stunnel with NFSv3/Samba to encrypt my traffic but I don't know if this is a good idea.

How are you doing it? What do you suggest?

Thanks!

Actually, you can. Either on boot or on demand. 👍

Interesting. Though it does seem to to require your private key to be unencrypted...

Well passwordless. But you can put it on an encrypted partition.

Well passwordless.

Same thing in this context. But sure, an encrypted partition would work.
